First time Best actor and Best Actress, Cheung Ka Fai and Bao Hei Jing, shed tears of joy when they received their awards. They were both excited and happy. Cheung Ka Fai yesterday joked that with this award in hand he believed that immigration would depend on it. He also took out a"cheat sheet" for his speech. He said, "Just now Hui On Wa had a lot to share, but I have even more to say because I have never won. I have seenfriends win more frequently."

Ka Fai would like to thank the director Dante Lam Chiu Yi, the cast and the crew. He said, "This award belongs to everyone." Ka Fai used "machine" to describe the feelings of this award, he said while he wept, "Like a factory with many machines, it creates a lot of products. Many people only pay attention to brand name machines and have never paid attention to obscure machines. Yet one day the Critic Society came to the factory, saw the products that this machine manufactured were pretty, and gave this award to me. This award has a lot of significance to me."

Bao Hei Jing was already in tears before she came on stage. Shesaid recently she thought she was Cinderella. She would like to thank SiuBo (Yee Tung Sing) for presenting this award to her because she knew Siu Bo has never presented awards. She would also like to thank Siu Bo forbringing her to the film industry. She said, "I believe that no one wouldgive me an award again, so I would cherish this award. After 40 years in the business, I am truly infinitely grateful for being recognized. This is my first award, or is likely to be the only one, my husband (Fong Ping) said that he wanted to clear off the Fortune and Longevity statues to make room for my awards."

She was also grateful to Hui On Wa, a brave director, and her husband Fong Ping who served as her photographer yesterday. After the event, Bao Hei Jing felt vindicated. When the event announced the winners, she did not dare to believe it. The Hong Kong Film Award nomination was already a great honor. This was her first Hong Kong Film Award nomination, which was already an affirmation. How would Sister Baocelebrate? She said dinner with a group of friends. She also hoped that in the future she would be able to make more movies.

Yee Tung Sing was responsible for presenting yesterday's Hong Kong Film Critics Society awards to five winners. When Siu Bo presented the award to Sister Bao he even presented it on his knee.

Siu Bo expressed that he has always felt that he was not qualifiedto present awards to others, but this time with winners Ong Sai, Hui On Wa, Cheung Ka Fai and Sister Bao he immediately agreed. He felt truly emotional. He also said that they were four of the filmmakers who he respected the most. Many people say that the Critics Society was a small circle, but he felt it has played a significant role. Many people would compare this award with the Hong Kong Film Award and the Director's Guildaward, but the comparison was unnecessary. Everyone came from a differentfilm point of view, fact, actually all of them were small circle activities. If a movie was only measured with box office, Hong Kong from then on would not have its own culture.

Hui On Wa received the Best Director and Best Film awards. She said that this year she had a lot to say. She would like to thank the actors and behind-the-scenes staff. Before she thought winning an award was for her vanity and for convenience to find a job afterward, but now she has a new revelation. Just as when she shot the film, initially she did not know what it would turn out but she still daringly went ahead withit. Now it has been recognized, she could tell other directors that this approach to filmmaking was viable, shoot once they have the idea and the creativity. She also said directors on many occasions would not have enough money for the shoot, but apart from money, actually good faith and creativity were also important. http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/2038/090212.txt
